  1. I've searched this but can't find a definitive answer I'm using Tims oem conversion plates to fit new oem size speakers I thought when the three screws were removed the old speaker would come out : then just the matter of putting on the conversion plates and new speakers;but the oem plastic bracket seems to be glued on as well Don't want to bugger up the retaining holes by hacking at it Where do I go from here please anyone ? Thanks, and no shouting I'm of a certain age
  2. Check the brake calipers are working If it's not been moved , they can seize If you take it out go easy then check for any leaks Good luck
  3. I've tried most The best I've found is "Brilliant " polish. Beltin stuff and not harsh
  4. An excellent alloy polish(anything really) is the aptly named " Brilliant" range Best I've used Afterwards as said , Poorboys or Chemical Guys are good at protection
  5. Thanks Noz Will look great My names down for one
  6. Hello Noz Any update on the auto gear surround? Really is strange these are made for many makes and models of cars,but not for the Supra Think your on a winner Noz
  7. Interested in this Would liven up the centre console
  8. This is just terrible Desperately sad for his family I've been away and only just heard of this May God bless and help all those left behind Awful awful news
  9. Give William Todd(NI)a call I've been with them for years Mind you I am of,ahem,a certain age
  10. Take a look at Bignums 7min-27 sec around the Nurbergring in a 600 Bhp Supra .Stunning drive Think that says it all
  11. I bought off e bay and had to take out a dispute as the pump did not work Got my money back Bought a Walbro 400 from Whifbitz and was all was fine.Output is enough for 800 bhp The 450 is aimed at the E85 market No pumps in N Ireland ,so no point
  12. Take a look at the Titan intake for the Supra Its a direct replacement ;modified for better flow ,volume etc . Nicely polished too Says up too Maybe 20bhp improvement Bigger the turbo ,better the results Been thinking about this for my car Nothing to move around About £700 plus a supplement for your core If they accept it you get the supplement refunded Worth a look

    Nice work Clear cam covers on e bay From China,but look ok and under £20 Might be worth a punt to see what they're like Good luck
  16. Had a quick google There is a set of deep dish 19" AS High speed silver split rim type alloys for sale on gumtree for £200 Not definitive for yours but a guide maybe
  17. I've searched high and low to find who posted the thread on these:can't find it Have bought the paint and primer filler Just wanted another look at the panels before I start into it.Whoever used Autotek paint gave it a first class report on the finish. Who are you please? Thanks
  18. Like it.Wonder who will be the first to stick a turbo in it?
  19. Copy that! Whatever happened to Roger?
  20. Mine arrived today Excellent quality First class Anyone staying with 4" speakers, these are are great adapter plates Thankyou Tim
  21. Thanks lads Does make you think about the price On the road , with your foot down,would a real difference be felt; as James graph shows Have to conclude(think)that for me a gen 1 is dead on Appreciate everyone's input Have a Happy Christmas and a safe one
  22. I know the relative power outputs from these turbos However I have been trying to find a definitive dyno plot ,one against the other,just to see how they compare in spool,torque etc Have had no luck Anybody know how they do compare? Thanks
  23. I made two splitters for my car, not as aggressive as Bignums(looks superb);both of which looked great but are now in bits Speed humps and high kerbs Really like them though Made mine out of foam cored pvc sheet On eBay in 8'x4' sheets,black or white About £30 Strong but easy to cut I covered the leading edge with rubber u shaped edging Make a template and cut carefully Lot cheaper than buying a ready made one and can look just as good
